Use The Ambient Noise Generator
There are two main ways in which you can create your very own ambient atmosphere using Ambient Mixer’s ambient noise generator. In order to save any changes though, you would need a free account.
Modify An Existing Atmosphere
There are so many amazing ambient mixes out there, but sometimes, there is just something missing. Or something just doesn’t seem right.
Luckily, you can alter all existing mixes to your liking. Add sounds and melodies or mute sounds or remove them completely. You can change the title, description, tags, and the image and make a whole new atmosphere out of an already existing one.
Create A Mix From Scratch
If you want to start completely from scratch, you can do so too. There is an entirely empty atmosphere for you to play with. There are no distractions from previous users or sounds. Start with complete silence and use the ambient noise generator to create something magical, adventurous, calming, meditative, creepy, fun or thrilling.
All Kinds Of Ambient Sounds
Where to get all the ambient sounds for your atmospheres from though? Again, there are two ways to do so.
Choose A Sound
On Ambient Mixer, there’s a large library of ambient sounds available. You can browse them easily by clicking on “Load” on the channel you want to change. They are sorted into descriptive categories and can, of course, be listened to before selection.
Upload A Sound
Of course, you can upload your own sounds as well. You can make them available to all users of Ambient Mixer, or keep them to yourself for your own ambient noise mixes.
If you do not use the sounds right away, they will be displayed at the very bottom of your dashboard where you can listen to them again, edit or delete them.
Ambient Noise Generator Functions
When you get to create your own ambient noise mix, either using an existing atmosphere or starting from scratch, you can use different functions to make your mix special. They are listed below.
Panning
Each channel can use panning. That way, sounds appear to come more or less to the left or right. This can be heard very well when using headphones. The default plays sounds in both directions equally. From there, you can pan the sound either to the left or to the right, gradually.
Volume & Mute
Each channel can have an individual volume or they can be muted completely. That way, sounds can appear closer or farther away on top of being more or less intrusive.
In addition, you can change the overall volume of the whole mix when playing it. This setting will not be saved though and by default, all mixes are on the highest overall volume. Especially when pairing a mix up with your Spotify playlist or a song on YouTube, this function comes in handy.
Crossfade
Crossfade is for permanent sounds that usually end rather abruptly. Instead of the sound ending and starting anew, a non-intrusive crossfade can be added for a more smooth listening experience.
Randomize
Not all sounds should play constantly in an ambient mix. They could become very annoying in the worst case. But even if not, the randomize option provides a way to make mixes feel more natural and life-like. Play any sound once per minute, three times every ten minutes, five times, per hour, …
The User Dashboard
Creating an account on Ambient Mixer comes with more perks than just being able to save new atmospheres. Most of them revolve around the user dashboard which are explained below.
Downloaded Atmospheres
If you downloaded an atmosphere on Ambient Mixe, you don’t have to save the link in order to get your download once the MP3 file is created. In your Dashboard, there is a list of your latest downloaded atmospheres for you to revisit and download them again. This list is stored approximately three days.
Your Own Audio Mixes
Most importantly, the dashboard houses all the ambient noise mixes you have created, ordered by popularity which is determined by views and votes. Which brings us to the next section.
User Votes
As a registered user, you can express your love for certain atmospheres by voting for them. This double-functions as saving your favorite mixes to your dashboard. These mixes can be found underneath your own in the user dashboard. This way, you can access your favorites easily.
